First, that was not me who you just responded to.

Second, I don't think it's very comparable. The big drawback of "RESTful APIs" is that you cannot combine things. You call an endpoint and you add some query parameters, that's pretty much it.

In Graphql, you can combine and even nest queries. You simply cannot (or don't want to) generate all combinations in advance, so you'll decide adhoc in your code. Therefore you need a library that can do these combinations adhoc for you in a typesafe way.
